I’m going nuts. This girl I know who is also on LJ… she’s done it again. I haven’t complained before because she reads my journal. Well I finally made a filter. Because I just have to get it out.

OK… to sum up some things she’s done in the past:

I put my house on the market. Well she decides she has to move as well so puts hers up. Then calls and rambles on end about how fast her house was going to sell because she priced hers affordable and no one wants to spend more than 150k on a house. She knew my house was listed over 200k. She then went on to say how her house is better than mine. And she’s going to be sad to move out of it, but it doesn’t make sense for her family the way it has grown. (It is a four bedroom house with 2 bathrooms an eat in kitchen, living room, den, mudroom. Fenced back yard. Patio. She has three kids, two girls and a boy. Home was built like 40 odd years ago. She had it listed 100k under mine. Exactly. She wanted 114 and I wanted 214.

Once her house sold I had to hear her go “I’m so glad my house sold in 20 days! What a relief this is!! I’m so glad I made it affordable to upper middle class.” Her house sold mid may. As we all know, mine has been listed since February.

Other things she has felt the need to argue with me on is the “fact” that cordless phones do not have removable batteries. And she is glad she has this great “new” thing with her expensive cordless phone that allows you to change batteries. When I told her that all of my cordless phones had batteries that were removable she told me I was wrong.

She also asked me why my website wasn’t more professional looking. She asked why I didn’t try harder and told me her website was better than mine. Things like this.

This is just a bit of the stuff… anyway… so today she comes over to watch Charmed because even though she has a DVR (after I recommended it) she doesn’t bother to double check listings and so she missed the last hour of the finale. I’m sorry, I trust nothing… especially for finales where times change and things extend and the like? No way… I check, double check, and often triple checked. And especially for things that I really like, such as Charmed which is probably her favourite show. She named her pets after characters on this show for crying out loud. Well she’d been asking for a month to come see it.

So she comes over and watches it. Then she gets into this argument over if fire is a demon trait or not. I said no because they said that the firestarter kid wasn’t evil. They were trying to protect him from the source of evil basically enslaving him and torturing him and turning him into a bodyguard for the Source. But the kid was good as a lot of firestarters are. She said that fire is always a demon power on the show.

Then she told me that the desert is ugly and that it is always red and gross. Well I lived in the desert. Outside my backyard I had a fenced in area of grass and then there was a rise of sand and as far as the eye could see past that rise was sand. And it was sand coloured, not red. But she told me I didn’t know what I was talking about. So I told her that the dunes in Star Wars were there outside of Yuma and she goes “You mean the dunes from the beach?” I said “That wasn’t a beach. There are these great dunes outside of Yuma that people come from all over to ride their dune buggys on.” She told me I was wrong and that Star Wars desert was filmed at a beach. Even though the town is very proud of the fact that Star Wars was there and all. She wraps it up getting testy and goes “Why do we always do this?” We? We? We do what?

So anyway… I don’t know if I’ll see her again before I move. At this point, I think I’m glad. I just don’t know how much more of it I can take. 😦 I really do try to be friendly with people… but what the heck? I don’t understand.
